There is a system bug in OSX 10.9.0-10.9.5 where some Core Image filters results in a crash sooner or later because of a memory leak. All the Core Image blurs are affected, as well as the Chroma Key mixer. Maybe some of the blend modes too, but since Core Image can fallback to use OpenCL - which is the root of this issue - on 10.9 without any notice, anything which is Core Image related is probably dangerous on 10.9.
